About this episode

Welcome back to Girls That Startup, a weekly series where we spill the tea on how to create a seven-figure side hustle - because no one saves their way to wealth. You’re joined by Sim, a seven-figure business owner, and Maia, an entrepreneur in the making.


This week, Sim and Maia discuss how to manage finances as a business owner. They share their personal experiences and offer tips for handling money in a business. They emphasise the importance of separating personal and business finances, opening a separate bank account, and keeping track of income and expenses. They also discuss the benefits of working with an accountant and finding one that aligns with your values and communication style.
